[BUG] Wings can get nested in a way to cause stack overflow => game crash

Post by taronas »

I posted this in the german tech support area but it seems nobody from Egosoft ever goes there. Much more responses over here!

debug log in viewtopic.php?f=183&t=407758

I have a save game that can upload somewhere if Support wants to have a look (otherwise I save the bandwidth)

What happened in that game:

I had a wing of some Ospreys.
I was flying around in a Discoverer.
I ordered the Wing to follow/protect the Disco.
Together we brought up a pirate ship.
I switched from the Disco into the captured Ship.

All was fine until here.

Then I ordered the Disco to dock at the Wing leader.

From there on it went mad.

The Own Property List was showing nothing anymore and I could not interact with anything on the map anymore.
After a messing around for a while with opening/closing the map and various lists the game finally crashed.


I loaded the save from before sending the Disco to the wing leader and broke the "follow" order before having it dock. That way the game runs fine.
